Ryan was a bald baby for quite some time. He finally started getting some fuzz and, eventually, HAIR! I remember taking pictures of his little wisps of hair, so excited it was finally there, haha.
I don’t think he had his first haircut until around 1 year of age. My mom did it and she’s the only one that has since then. She’s no professional, but Ryan’s little and his hair is so thin and fine (just Keep Reading Ryan’s first REAL haircut

I need advice from other moms or people who know more about child development than I do. Should a toddler (Ryan is 2o months) have structured play and be expected to listen and follow directions? Or should he be free to explore and do as he pleases?
Here’s the deal…
We’re taking a parent-tot tumbling class at the local gymnastics academy. We went to our first session this past Friday and it goes all the way through December. Keep Reading Structured play for a toddler? HELP!
